Painting, photography, modeling kinda things
Here is the musician model. I only painted two of these dun coloured horses and I think they turned out quite well. Certainly better than the greys and thanks to my messing around with the whites ultimately better than them too. Probably the best aspect of this figure is the back of the cloak with the gem stones etc which you don’t really see in this picture.
Ok Gallery is now available see the Gallery link at the top of the page
Here is the first of my Glade Riders. Again was painted with a pretty poor brush and though I had nicely layered the colour on the horse, a dear friend of mine pointed out some rather poor finishing work in it’s assembly so went back and cleaned and puttied. This certainly looked better but the paintwork never recovered. Probably should have stripped it and started again but am to lazy for that.
Also testing a new gallery plugin which should make organising pics a little better.
One of the reasons for creating this blog was so I could show (Martin at least) my minatures I’ve painted recently.
This is my latest Warhammer Fantasy figure. Amber bought it amongst other things as a wedding anniversary present. I’ve always liked the model. It’s essentially painted exactly like the GW version, though sadly with a little less skill. In fact I was so dismissive of it in it’s completed form that I decided that I was not going to paint fantasy again until I got some new good quality brushes, brush care material, flow improver, improved my technique (or at least stopped being so lazy) etc etc. Essentially it was painted with a fishtailing synthetic size 0 brush, which though adequate has not produced a finish I’m proud of. So in the meantime whilst I restock on essential art supplies I’m painting FOW Fallschirmjager (again with crappy synthetic brushes which are starting to fishtail or hook but meh they’re so small it’s not really noticable).
